  • Chestnuts, is a 3 bedroom bright and airy, character filled, apartment, occupying 1st and 2nd floors of listed Georgian building, with great views over The Downs and Swanage Bay. The terrace was built in 1830 by William Morton Pitt, a Member of Parliament representing Dorset. He had a vision of transforming Swanage from a small quarrying and fishing town into a Victorian seaside resort.
    ***************************************************************************************************
    Chestnuts is very close to the seafront and shops, a short 3 minute walk down Seymer Road. The flat is full of character and comfortably well furnished with three bedrooms on the second floor, two of which overlook the Downs, Swanage Bay and the Pier. There is a WC and washbasin on the same floor.
    On the first floor we have a front lounge overlooking the Bay with 2x sofas, tv. There is a seperate dining room at the rear of the main house with dining table and chairs.

Perfect

We spent a lovely few days at Chestnuts. It's a quiet spot with fabulous views and the flat is comfortable and spotless. Only one thing to note is that the stairs up to the first floor are quite steep. We highly recommend the flat to anyone for a quiet break in lovely Swanage
